Abstract
A secure element, for example an improved SIM card or the like, for a telecommunications terminal, such as a mobile telephone. The secure element may implement a trusted services management application, for example, by executing the trusted services management application on a secure processor. The trusted services management application may manage at least one trusted application to be run by the telecommunications terminal, where trusted applications are used for functions requiring a high level of security such as payment, the supply of “premium” content, which may be certified or guaranteed, or guaranteeing the integrity of the terminal.
